I certainly didn`t think of myself as gifted. The standards for being gifted in my environment were if you were good in Little League or if you were good in football.
I blame it on Walt Disney, where animals are given human qualities. People don`t understand that a wild animal is not something that is nice to pat. It can seriously harm you.
I actually started as a model builder and quickly progressed into production design, which made sense because I could draw and paint. But I kept watching that guy over there who was moving the actors around and setting up the shots.
I do an awful lot of scuba diving. I love to be on the ocean, under the ocean. I live next to the ocean.
